Abstract: A form of the spectrum of gravity-capillary waves is suggested, based on a balance of the wind input, the spectral flux divergence, the viscous dissipation, and the modulation from the wave-drift interaction. The spectrum ...

Abstract: The mean-square slope (MSS) of the sea surface for upwind and crosswind is derived, based on Phillips? equilibrium spectrum and the model herein on gravity?capillary wave spectrum. The MSS integrated from the above two ...
